Daron Roberts was awarded the trophy for the most humorous
calypso for 2007 and took the Calypso Monarch crown in the
San Fernando Boys RC School calypso competition on
Carnival Friday.

The competition took the form of a three part contest -
in the infant, lower junior and senior categories in the
school yard. This was the schools 30th annual calypso
monarch show.

Roberts, decked in full football gear, delivered his rendition
entitled De Man Butt Down De Man before his peers.

Stefan Corbie and Maalik Springle ran second and third respectively
to Roberts in the senior category.

In the lower junior category Michael Smith singing My Future
placed first, while Isaiah Mootoo and Kerrell Wilson emerged
second and third respectively.

In the infants category six-year-old Mickyle Calliste executed
a story about the kidnapping and violence crisis in the
country. Calliste was last years infant monarch and
went on to retain the title with his song entitled Kidnapping.

Other successes in the category were Lindon Livingston and
Tevin Keith. Stefan Corbie also captured the Road March
title.

The young calypsonians of tomorrow sang with conviction
on the many problems faced in T&T.

Several pupils decided to sing about the issues affecting
the country.

Apart from the minor hiccups with the make-shift tent, the
boys all delivered diligently before their peers,
parents and teachers.
